At this time, the sun still showed a little. Richard’s night blindness had yet to be activated. During the daytime, he had almost been cooked into New Orleans roasted chicken wings. He saw that Zhang Zian and Xiao Tianyu were somewhat intimate. That had the effect of reviving him.
Zhang Zian was afraid that it would say something disgusting. He already had no appetite. If it said something disgusting, might he then have to forgo dinner?
Without waiting for Richard to speak, he picked up the towel on his other shoulder and put it on its head. By doing this, he caused Richard to suddenly only see darkness.
Xiao Tianyu was wearing a sleeveless top, which revealed two fair, fatty arms. Although he was somewhat thicker, his fair skin was particularly conspicuous in the evening glimmer. In addition… his
breasts
were also very big. The only issue was the sweaty smell… although Zhang Zian was not faring any better, either.

Who?



Xiao Tianyu was shocked by the sudden sound. The fat on his body jiggled like jelly. He had just looked into his car and seemed to be looking for something. He had not noticed Zhang Zian.

It’s me,
Zhang Zian replied.

Oh, my brother. You suddenly popped up. That scared me a little… What’s the matter?
Xiao Tianyu said with a smile, breathing a sigh of relief.
However, Zhang Zian caught that he’d been slightly flustered before and felt that he was hiding something.
What are you doing? Looking for something?
Zhang Zian looked into his car.

No… Ah, yes, I’m looking for underwear to change. Hey, it’s good that they are all single-use underwear. Wear one and throw one away. You get to save on the washing,
Xiao Tianyu said, trying to move his obese body to block Zhang Zian’s line of sight.
There was no way to wash clothes in the desert, so everyone’s underwear was disposable. While there was nothing weird about this, if he was merely looking for underwear, why did he look so panicky? Even if he had a big chest, he was also not a big girl.
Zhang Zian thought of Xiao Tianyu’s material consumption and euphemistically said,
We have a shortage of materials in the desert. We are a group. If you use more, others use less. Try to reduce your usage.


I know, I know.
Xiao Tianyu nodded, but it did not seem genuine. He did not seem to internalize the message.
The heat of the day was already irritating, and his attitude made Zhang Zian somewhat angry.
Zhang Zian acted like he wanted to go and casually complained randomly about the weather. He took two steps to the side. When Xiao Tianyu relaxed and lowered his guard, he suddenly ran towards his car door and peeked inside. He said,
Hey, I’m thirsty. Let me borrow a bottle of water to drink…




Oh! No! Wait! I will give it to you!
Xiao Tianyu reacted instinctively and tried to pull Zhang Zian away from his car, but it was too late.
When Zhang Zian looked into the compartment, he found nothing unusual except for the strong sweaty smell. However, he was thinking about supplies, so his eyes turned towards the trunk carrying the goods. The oil drum was opaque, so he could not make out how much oil was left in it. However, the mineral water was in a transparent box, and the amount of water left could be seen at a glance.
Because the light was dim, the water seemed to be at reasonable levels. However, Xiao Tianyu screamed at him with such guilt that it made him firmly believe that there must be some problem.
The light from the setting sun was almost on the same horizontal plane as the car window, and it shone on the bottles of mineral water. He suddenly realized that some of the mineral water’s light refraction did not seem the same. He picked one up and immediately became furious.
It was an empty bottle!
There was more than one empty bottle, and as he grabbed them randomly, he found more than four or five lying around.
He finally understood what was going on. Xiao Tianyu had not thrown away the used mineral water bottles, but merely put them back in their places, pretending that they had not been used up.
Xiao Tianyu’s face turned pale, and he put on a smile to try to wiggle his way out of the situation.
So what? They are all used to hold urine, you know, yeah…

Since changing the strategy for crossing the sand dunes, everyone had more than enough time to relieve themselves. The need for mineral water bottles to hold their pee was minuscule. At most, he should leave one empty bottle in the car to act as a spare. Who in their right mind would keep so many bottles like Xiao Tianyu?
And even if one kept the empty bottle for a spare, it was usually placed in the glove compartment or in the cup holder next to the driver’s seat. This would make it convenient for use at any time. Who would take the trouble to return all the bottles neatly to their original positions?


There was no doubt that this was merely a cover!
Zhang Zian slammed an empty bottle onto the ground and said angrily,
Honestly, when you reported your consumption of drinking water, did you count these empty bottles?

Xiao Tianyu’s reported drinking water consumption was the largest in the team, but the gap between his and others’ was not too big. Therefore, Wei Kang still spoke up for him. However, if these empty bottles were counted, Xiao Tianyu’s drinking water consumption was way too high to be tolerated.
Seeing that the cat was out of the bag, Xiao Tianyu panicked and waved his hands around again and again. He was trying to hint to Zhang Zian not to alarm the others. He lowered his voice and begged.
Brother Zhang, I am afraid of heat! Fat people are afraid of heat. I am especially afraid of heat! This car is like a smoldering stove. Any longer and I am going to be a roasted duck… I beg you not to tell the rest. I won’t dare to do this anymore, okay?

If this had been daily life, then a few bottles of mineral water, even a few boxes of mineral water, that were wasted would mean nothing. At most, Zhang Zian would lose a few dollars, but here in the desert, water was life!
Zhang Zian mustered the greatest amount of patience he could to restrain his anger. He wanted to understand things first, because one couldn’t possibly drink so much water, either. After all, Xiao Tianyu was not a water tank.

Tell me, how did you use this water?
he asked loudly.

I… Isn’t it too hot? I sweat a lot, and my body was too sticky. Every time I leaned back, my back stuck to my seat. So I drove with a towel soaked with water. As I drove, I used it to wipe my body, so that it could be cool…
Xiao Tianyu explained with great detail.
Zhang Zian was so mad he almost exploded. He squeezed his fist and screamed. He couldn’t wait to punch Xiao Tianyu’s fat face.
Xiao Tianyu was scared just by looking at Zhang Zian’s expression. He nodded and nodded. He pointed to the sky, swore that there would be no next time, and begged Zhang Zian not to tell the others. Otherwise, he would be ashamed to see anyone.



Do you know that even if I don’t say anything, these horrible things you do will be discovered sooner or later? You ruined your own water supply, so what are you drinking?
Zhang Zian asked.
Xiao Tianyu said with a sullen face,
So what? The rest can’t just openly watch me die of thirst, can they? Besides, there are so many people. If each of them saved a sip of water, I would have something to drink…

Zhang Zian turned his anger into laughter. So that was what he’d been planning all along. When the water in his car was gone, he would ask for help from the rest.
They were also lucky that they were traveling with Peter Lee and his team. They had more manpower together. Besides, with this issue being discovered while it was still early, there were ways to remedy it. If not, he would have really done everyone in!
Only one sentence could accurately describe Zhang Zian’s mood at this time—he had never met such a brazen person!

I am so done with you!

Suddenly, without waiting for Zhang Zian to think about how to deal with him, a black shadow emerged next to Xiao Tianyu. A huge fist landed squarely on him and brought Xiao Tianyu to his knees.
